Some more info on the ship sunk by the Cape Fear River in Wilmington, N.C.. From Civil War Shipwrecks.
The wreckage of the tug USS Violet was probably removed to 22-feet below mean sea level by the Army Corps of Engineers in 1893 as a navigation hazard.
Information on the sinking of it in ORN Vol. 10, pages 343-344, Series 2 1:233.
